Topic: Petit Computer

yes.spu0 and col1, im not using any other resources other than those.did i load it wrong? I usually load spu then col, do i have to load in a certain way?

@TexMurphy I'll look into it. Expect Flappy bird by next week. The main game is done and playable, the sprites are in, I just need to add menus.

Why do I feel invisible? I feel invisible. Expect no deadline for Rise due to hardly any time to work.

@Slayer I had to youtube Skyrim first. I like real time better (Quest for Glory) than turn based (Final Fantasy). Its more being part of the game than just watching the action.
@Bluerobin2 We need to make a menu template that people can simply Append into their projects.

I understand what you mean. I just wanted an alternate option for those out there who prefer one or the other and do the majority. On that note, I think I'll just do real-time.

im working on a 2d version of minetest,"NOT MINECRAFT"
the terrain,moving and scrooling is the problem.I allready got some help from @texmurphy. he showed me some websites that may help with a few of these problems,so far ive finished 1,player strites 2,bg tiles 3,working menu 4,nice looking text.
the game is quite simple at the molment,but at the final version it will hopefully be exactly like minetest,exept its 2d.

my nokai rpg,not thinking of it right now

@randomouse, I didn't come up with the decimal to binary. I just thought of the binary to decimal. Not sure if anyone came up with it first.

@Bluerobin2 Oh Noes, I haven't dropped my iPhone ever since I installed Flappy Bird. High score of 20...

To make up for my off topicness I am currently working on a smoother day/night cycle similar to Randomous's in Village. It modifies the RGB levels depending on the hour.

I think because I already have a top down zombies game that I will make a top down Black Ops 2 clone for petit computer. I will have 7 guns and 3 killstreak rewards by the end of today or tommorow. (B23R, Tac-45, Swat 556, MP7, Remington 870, Vector K10, LSAT) (Hellstorm missile (Called a HailStorm missile in this game), RC-XD, and an AGR). Also, I plan to have up to 2 bots (your choice of regular or veteran, and Nuketown 2025 as a map. Anyone second this?

how do i make a prg detect whether or not the use has played the prg before?

@Hansausage I literally played it for hours straight last night . My version is a bit easier because I can't copy the physics exactly (Because ive played ios version like 3 times). Its still really hard though.

Im also adding different modes. So far I have classic mode, lives mode and nyan cat mode. Any other ideas?

@TobuKatsu you need to save something within the game like maybe a mem file:

LOAD "MEM:PLAYED",0
IF RESULT=FALSE THEN GOTO @FIRSTTIME

'OTHER CODE

@FIRSTTIME
MEM$="":SAVE "MEM:PLAYED"
'DO OTHER STUFF
RETURN

This will check if there is a MEM file named "PLAYED" and if there isnt, then it will create the file and do whatever. The next time, the file will exist so it will skip the first time stuff. This way, you also have a MEM file in your hands so you can save highscores and such.

thx robin

thx robin

@ChangeV wonderful progress on Petit Terraria!!! You and @Discostew's projects are in my opinion, the best!

Don't take this the wrong way, @bigdig00, but FPSs and simple programming languages don't necessarily mix. It's hard to synthesize the two, but I guess you feel up to it.....

No-one? OK. I have already added the MP7 and the RC-XD.

I had a big day today, tomorrow I'll try to work on Rise. I have my plan for character creation, it will take long, hard work though. I will have certain races, such as Human, Elf, Half-Demon, and maybe one or two more. These races will have abilities, i.e. Humans are extra skilled with close combat weapons like swords, Elves are good with magic, and Half-Demons get revived at 1/4 of their normal health as a last-stand ability should they fall in battle. These are my plans. I'll need some time to power-work tomorrow, and I have nowhere to go.

i cant think of any conversations or conversation starters for my program, what would all youz say to start a conversation?

So I finished Flapp Bird: PTC Edition! Yay! I had to scratch the idea of game modes because this "Small" program takes up 370 lines and I don't feel like working on it any more. The game has many resources to load so I decided to save it as a package.

The problem is that I've never saved anything as a package.

I know that it goes something like SAVE "NAMEHERE",hex string w/ 4 characters. I need to know what to put in "hex string". What do I hex? Program names? A simple search revealed Discostew's tutorial of which I've personally found confusing. So @Discostew or someone else, can you help me?

I need to package the following (in order loaded):
COL0 (Bottom Screen) - "FBGUICOL"
BGU0 (Bottom Screen) - "FBGUI"
COL2 (Bottom Screen) - "FBGRPCL2"
GRP1 - "FBSCRN1"
COL2 - "FBGRPCOL"
GRP0 - "FBSCRN0"
COL0 - "FBBGCOL"
COL1 - "FBSPRCOL"
BGU0 - "FBTILES"
BGU1 - "FBLOGO"
SPU0 - "FBSPRITE"

..And the program itself is called "FLAPBIRD"

Thanks in advance!
